Oh have you seen my dear companionFor he was all this world to meI hear he's gone to come far countryAnd that he cares no more for meI wish I were a swallow flyingId fly to a high and lonesome placeId join the wild birds in their cryingThinking of you and your sweet face

Oh have you seen my dear companionFor he was all this world to meBut now the stars have turned against meAnd he cares no more for me

Oh when the dark is on the mountainAnd all the world has gone to sleepI will go down to the cold watersAnd there I'll lay me down and weep
